Hey all, Eric here. Ok,
since a lot (and by no means “all” or even “most”) of you are bombarding me
with tweets about my upcoming interviews. I NEED TO SAY THIS and really hope you take a
few minutes to read it:
I know some of you "hate" Andy/Amanda/GM (which is kinda hypocritical of
those who do, since you “hate them” for him “hating”) but whatever. I think they ALL played great GAMES. As in game moves, as in strategy which I
wrote all about it here. Yes, they said some horrible stuff in the
house. I’m sure we will address it, just
like I’m sure if you hate them you won’t like their answers. To that point, if you are a fan of what we do
you know we don’t take things to seriously and we focus on the “comedic” side
of things. We will ask your questions,
but at the end of the day we are trying to make a funny feel good show. I’m not Diane Sawyer, I’m not WaWa Walters
and I kinda don’t wanna be. So here is
the deal… if you hate anybody I’m interviewing, don’t watch (and don’t tweet me
about how much you hate it). I’m pretty
sure nobody is forcing you to watch. And
I’m not saying that to be a dick. Hear
me out…
For those of you who hate the people on my shows, I get it. That show isn’t for you. It’s for the fans who like those people. And guess what, you may love the Elissa,
Rachel, Candice or Judd show then... or the Nick & GM one.
Maybe you love a “…” or thought inside
parentheses as much as I do… You may hate bad grammar (in which case you must really
hate me … but back on topic). You may also
hate BB15 all together but can’t wait for our Bravo Shows, Survivor Recaps and Amazing Race interviews. That’s what I do here... I try and make shows and content so all the
fans of what I/We do are happy. I spend
all day, most nights, every weekend and all summer creating, producing, scheduling,
and editing content for you all. This is
a 24/7 “job” which is at the expense of a lot of other things in my life. And “job” is a bad word to describe it, because
I don’t get paid to do it. As a matter
of fact, after hosting, websites, etc. (you get the point) it actually costs me
money (A LOT of money) to do all this.
But hey feel free to donate
and I’ll take your complaints WAY more seriously. LOL! Actually, I am kidding. Don’t give it to me. Help out Britney instead and her precious
Tilly. If you want to help me, you can
always subscribe to our new YouTube channel (link above), get your family and
friends to also and share our content on social media. Then maybe one day I can make back some money
with ads and such.
So why do I do it then… and for the love of God get to the
point you say? Ok. Well I do it for a few very personal reasons,
that maybe I’ll share someday (but not today).
The other main reason is that I LOVE THE LITTLE “YOUR REALITY RECAPS”
COMMUNITY we have all built up over these seasons of shows. The community that made it through the Katlin interview and LOVED
IT BTW! We always laugh, try not to take
ourselves too seriously and have always disagreed peacefully. In the three years I’ve been doing this there hasn’t
been any fights, hate, or huge drama around these parts. I’ve literally taken so much pride in
that. So to now have so many people
tweeting hate at me and around this “community” really upsets me and makes me
question why I’m doing this.
Save the drama for you’re your mama people! (Yea I went 80s). Again, this is free. You don’t pay. I pay for it, and work at it non-stop for
fans like you. So if you hate something
about it, great. Just sit tight till the
next thing you might like, or move along.
But you don’t need to shit all over what I’m doing and what other fans
in our community want to hear about. I
am “sticking up” for them now, just as I would for you if the situation was
reversed. I’m also sticking up for myself
and the hard work I put in to make every that I do from the website, to shows,
to social media, and events happen.
So hopefully that made sense. Its 2am here.
I’m exhausted… and not from having fun with friends on a Saturday night
(but I think I made that clear already).
Much love to you all. Just remember
I do what do (and people like Jon, Missy, Jeffery too) because of you all. So let’s all just enjoy it together. There is enough hate and drama in the
world. This should be a place of good
times, hard laughs, and juicy gossip… cause ya know (despite this blog post) were
not all bubble gum and rainbows people. We LOVE sarcasm and pushing the envelope with
some “jokes”. I just don’t need the
constant bombardment of hate tweeting. Ok,
now I’m rambling and need to sleep. Lots
of shows this week!
Xoxoxo-
Eric
